So I Went ahead and installed and overhang on my right leg slider to kind of monitor the travel my fortes will be using going forward now that I’ve change the oil, serviced and cleaned them.
The o-ring itself seems kind of dry and could create some friction when running up and down on the slider and I want to make sure it doesn’t impede the fork travel even though it will be very minuscule but moreover so it doesn’t tear the O ring itself I’m not sure if bearing grease with Moly would be a good idea or Using a dropper with the fork oil i used (Maxima 5wt) or would that dry out the o-ring?
I’m just looking for suggestions from people who may know what would be a good lubrication to use on the O-ring I’ve attached a picture of what I’m talking about but I think you guys pretty savvy and get the point.
